Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a glue-dispensing device acting close to the edges of an insole at the toe, sole, and sole-nollow junction lengths of a shoe being worked in a machine of the preassembling-assembling type.
  • an appropriate glue-dispensing device which enables an adhesive or thermoplastic cement to be spread along said insole lengths before folding the vamp edges onto the lower part of said insole.
  • dispensing devices of known type dispensing sectors that are supplied with glue issuing from a dispensing chamber.
  • These dispensing sectors on each of which a plurality of delivery valves is located which are susceptible of activation upon contact with the shoe insole, generally comprise a front sector substantially having a bow-shaped configuration, designed to act at the toe region of a shoe, and a pair of rear sectors engaged to the front sector and provided with delivery valves too, which are adapted to act along the insole edges close to the sole-hollow junction portion of the shoe.
  • the configuration of said dispensing sectors does not enable glue to be applied in a conveniently precise manner.
  • a particularly critical area is that corresponding to the sole-hollow junction portion on the inner shoe side where glue often is dispensed too close to the insole edges or even at the outside of said edges.
  • These movable dispensing sectors are set in motion by driving means such as stepping motors controlled by electronic systems in which the pattern of the shoe being worked is stored.
  • driving means such as stepping motors controlled by electronic systems in which the pattern of the shoe being worked is stored.
  • Another important object of the invention is to provide a glue dispensing device facilitating the operator in accomplishing the foreseen work steps by avoiding complicated adjustments and manipulations of members at high temperature, which could cause even serious accidents to the operator's upper limbs.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide an embodiment thereof which is advantageous in itself and at the same time represents a technical progress in the particular field.
  • a glue-dispensing device acting close to the edges of an insole at the toe, sole and sole-hollow junction lengths of a shoe being worked, in a machine of the preassembling-assembling type, said machine comprising a heel-locking element designed to hold the heel of said shoe being worked, the device being characterized in that it comprises:
  • Preassembling-assembling machines further comprise several clamps not shown in the drawings, disposed according to a substantially U-shaped line around the last 3 and defining all together an assembly technically known as "clamp round". Said clamps have the function of stretching and tensioning the vamp 4 leather placed on the last 3.
  • the vamp 4 is firmly fixed in place on the last 3 by several thightening means of a conventional type and known per se which are not shown, and comprise a jaw-like die coated with inert plastic material, Teflon for example, adapted to wrap the vamp 4 over the whole toe and flank portion extension in order to create a perfect side contact between the leather and last 3.
  • a pressure pad Disposed above the last 3 there is also a pressure pad, movable at right angles to the plane of the movable column 2 and adapted to lock both the vamp 4 and last 3 at the upper area of said last, known as "toe cap".
  • heel-locking element 6 located close to the shoe heel, which element is movable in the longitudinal direction of the shoe so as to suit the different lengths thereof.
  • the glue-dispensing device 1 comprises a shaped element 7 exhibiting a contour defining a line along which glue is to be dispensed, said line substantially corresponding to the outline of the edge lengths in the insole 5.
  • the glue-dispensing line should be slightly at the inside of the insole edges, being spaced apart as much as possible the same distance from said edges in order to ensure a correct glue spreading.
  • the shaped element 7 comprises a fixed portion 8, substantially corresponding to the shoe toe and sole portions and exhibiting an opening 9 at the inside thereof which the movable column 2 can pass through, and a pair of movable sectors 10 substantially corresponding to the sole-hollow junction length.
  • the movable sectors are engaged, at one end 10a thereof, in a consecutive and oscillatable manner, to the fixed portion 8 in the region of elongated holes 11 formed in said fixed portion and extending in a bow-like conformation in the longitudinal direction of the shoe. More particularly, the first ends 10a of the movable sectors 10 exhibit first engagement pins 12 fitted in the elongated holes 11 and enabling both a rotation of the movable sectors 10 and a substantially longitudinal displacement of the first ends 10a along the path defined by said elongated holes 11.
  • the shaped element 7 is supported by a support unit 13 adapted to put the shaped element 7 in place under the insole 5 while adapting it to the different shoe lengths and shoe conformations depending on whether right or left shoes are involved.
  • the support unit 13 comprises a base body 14 (Fig. 7) engaged to a support bar 15 and engaging the fixed portion 8, and a first slider 16 (Figs. 4, 5, 6, and 7) slidably engaged to the base body 14 and movable at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the shoe between a right limit position and a left limit position, both adjustable by limit screws 17.
  • Slidably engaged to the first slider 16 is a second slider 18 according to a slide direction parallel to the longitudinal direction of the shoe. The second slider 18 is therefore movable between a front limit position and a rear limit position, spaced apart a shorter and longer distance respectively from the toe of the shoe being worked.
  • the front and rear limit positions are defined by a longitudinal groove 19 formed in the second slider 18 and a guide pin 20, integral with the first slider 16 and fitted in the longitudinal groove 19.
  • first end portions 21a Slidably engaged to the second slider 18 at first end portions 21a, is a pair of drive elements 21.
  • the first end portions 21 a each have a transverse opening 22 in which a first slide 23 is inserted which is fastened to the second slider 18 by means of a pivot pin 24.
  • the first slides 23 and transverse openings 22 enable the drive elements 21 to be moved in a direction away from and close to each other, perpendicularly to the slide direction of the second slider 18.
  • the drive elements 21 are oscillatably engaged, at the second end portions 21b thereof, to the second ends 10b of the movable sectors 10 by means of second engagement pins 25.
  • the first end portions 21 of the drive elements 21 exhibit edge areas 26 symmetrically inclined to the longitudinal direction of the shoe and elastically kept against the guide pin 20 by a first spring member 27, engaged at the ends to the first end portions 21a and defined by a draw spring.
  • the inclination of the edge areas 26 is adapted to cause the drive elements 21 to move apart from each other during the displacement of the second slider 18 from the front limit position to the rear limit position. It is understood that if the second sliders 18 move in the opposite direction the edge areas 26 cause the drive elements 21 to move close to each other.
  • the guide pin 20, first spring member 27 and edge areas 26 all together define movement means 28 acting on the drive elements 21 in order to make said elements move close to and away from each other.
  • first actuator means 29 Connected to the first slider 16 and acting thereon is first actuator means 29 defined for example by a fluid-operated actuator which is adapted to make the first slider 16 move between the right and left limit positions so that the movable sectors 10 may define the shaped element 7 contour for a right and a left shoe, respectively.
  • This second actuator means 30 is defined by members connecting it to the heel-locking element 6 and adapted to selectively cause the displacement of the second slider 18 to the front limit position, when said heel-locking element 6 moves close to the shoe toe and to the rear limit position when it moves away from the shoe toe.
  • the connecting members 30 comprise a drive lever 31 exhibiting a first end stretch 31a fitted in a cavity of the second slider 18 and a second end stretch 31b engaged to a second elastic member 33, a graw spring for example.
  • the second end stretch 31b is also engaged to a cable or chain 34 passing over an idler pulley 35 and integral at the end with the heel-locking element 6.
  • the glue-dispensing device 1 further comprises a pair of glue spreaders 36, provided with glue dispensing or delivery tips 37, inside which delivery valves to be activated by contact with the insole 5 are housed.
  • Each glue spreader 36 is provided at the inside thereof with heating elements adapted to convert a thermoplastic filament 38 introduced thereinto at the end opposite to the tip 37, into glue in a fluid state at the tip 37.
  • the glue spreader 36 and the members arranged therein are known per se and already disclosed by other patents in the name of the same applicant (for example US Patent No. 4.480 584).
  • the glue spreaders 36 are supported and made movable by a movement unit 39 adapted to move the delivery tips 37 along said insole 5 edges while keeping said tips constantly in contact with the shaped element 7 contour.
  • the movement unit 39 comprises a pair of support elements 40, one for each glue spreader 36, rotatably engaged with each other according to a rotational axis 41 lying in a longitudinal plane with respect to the shoe.
  • a third spring member 42 engages the support elements 40 at the end portion thereof and acts on said support elements 40 so as to cause the same to rotate about the rotational axis 41 in the direction enabling the delivery tips 37 to move close to each other, while keeping them elastically against the shaped element 7 contour.
  • the glue spreaders 36 are slidably engaged to the support elements 40 by second slides 43, enabling the displacement of the glue spreaders 36 relative to the support elements 40 according to a translation direction following the prevailing extension of the spreaders 36.
  • the glue spreaders 36 are acted upon by fourth spring members 44, compresion springs for example, which are adapted to make said spreaders move along the second slides 43 so as to urge the delivery tips 37 elastically against the insole 5.
  • the third actuator means 45 comprises a fluid-operated cylinder 46 exhibiting a rod 47 rotatably engaged to a transverse connecting element 48. The latter is in turn engaged to a pair of operating bars 49 at intermediate areas thereof.
  • Each operating bar 49 is set on the support bar 15 at a fulcrum 49a and is engaged to a support element 40.
  • the movement of the rod 47 of the fluid-operated cylinder 46 which is substantially at right angles to the plane defined by the insole 5, would force the delivery tips 37, should they be fixed with respect to the support elements 40, to describe an arc having its center at fulcrum 49a, which is close to the insole plane and substantially oriented in the longitudinal direction of said insole.
  • fourth spring members 44 actually enables the delivery tips 37 to be held in contact with the insole 5 when said arc is being described.
  • feed members 50 are provided which are designed to feed a thermoplastic filament 38 and cause the same to move backward at the end of the delivery operations by a length sufficient to prevent an amount of glue greater than the desired amount from coming out of the delivery tip, which could give rise to the formation of sticky residues therearound.
  • the next step involves dispensing glue on the insole 5.
  • some operations performed automatically are previously necessary in order to adapt the shaped element 7 to the sizes and conformation of the shoe being worked.
  • First of all the first actuator means 29 causes the first slider 16 to move to the right limit position (see Fig. 4) or left limit position (see Fig. 6) depending on whether the shoe to be worked is a right or left shoe.
  • the movable sectors 10 are rotated about the first engagement pins 12 due to the translation undergone by the drive elements 21 and in particular the second end portions 21b thereof according to the displacement direction of the first slider 16.
  • the positioning of the heel-locking element 6 against the shoe heel enables the conformation of the shaped element 7 to be automatically adjusted so that it may suit the length of the shoe being worked.
  • the cable 34 is less tensioned, which brings about a displacement of the second end portion 31b of the drive lever 31 in the direction giving rise to the movement towards the rear limit position of the second slider 18 on which said drive lever 31 acts.
  • the contour of the shaped element 7 is therefore adapted to suit shoes of shorter length.
  • the glue dispensing step is started by either automatic or manual activation.
  • the lowering of the rod 47 of the fluid-operated cylinder 46 causes the delivery tips 37 to move towards the sole-hollow junction portion (see Figs. 2 and 7).
  • the third spring member 42 holds the delivery tips 37 against the shaped element 7, while the fourth elastic members 44 enable the delivery tips to be constantly in contact with the insole 5.
  • the amount of the delivered glue at each insole length can be suitably adjusted by varying the movement speed of the rod 47. For example by making the delivery tips stop for a longer time in the region of the shoe toe, it is possible to deliver a greater amount of glue thereon.
  • the members feeding the tips with the thermoplastic filament 38 withdraw the latter by an amount sufficient to enable the glue present at the end of the delivery tip to be sucked therein, due to the outer air pressure.
  • suitable movable plates move close to each other, thereby folding back the end flaps of vamp 4 under the insole 5, the adhesion therebetween being completed by a further pressing action carried out by a pressure pad conveniently provided as mentioned above.
  • the invention attains important advantages.
